More Drama!!

OK if you also have Facebook then you know that my life has been a little crazy lately. I went to the dentist a year ago for my annual teeth cleaning and they didn't like the look of my tongue but thought they would just wait and look at it next time.......so year later next cleaning, they really don't like the look of my tongue so they send me to a specialist in Manhattan, to look at my tongue.
They didn't just look at my tongue they put a BIG needle in my tongue and cut off a piece for a biopsy the piece itself was little maybe _____ that long and not much wider. It might as well have been the Grand Canyon it felt like they had cut half my tongue off. Head back to the school to let co-workers know that I am going home....or thought I was. I get back to the school and realize that the stitches they just put in have come out and I will now have to go back to Manhattan for new stitches and another BIG needle. They finally get me stitched up with stitches they will have to remove on Tuesday the 7th and send my home with some really goooood drugs. I find out the results tomorrow, they thought one of two possible infections because of Acid Reflux or Cancer but the last one was very far down the list. I will keep you posted on the results but I have learned one thing from this experience and that is I WILL NEVER PIERCE MY TONGUE!!!
